Re: [plt-scheme] defining macros in mzscheme 103

["Sylvain Beucler"<sylvain.beucler.fac@libertysurf.fr>]

I think you need to declare your macro this way:
(define-macro new-core
  (lambda () `(make-vector 4 0)))

But then you may want to write it in a simplier way:
(define (new-core)
    (make-vector 4 0))
